VOLUMETRIC ANALYSIS
The technique of volumetric analysis uses the reaction between a solution of known concentration with
a solution of unknown concentration. The most common reactions are between acids and bases
although many other reactions can be used as the basis of a volumetric method.
Volumetric analysis is a method of determining chemical differences and principles of redox (reduction-
oxidation) reactions between molecules. Chemicals under this topic are classified based on the results
obtained from titration.
TITRATION TECHNIQUES
Approach the endpoint more slowly and watch the color of your flask carefully. Use a wash bottle to
rinse the sides of the flask and the tip of the buret, to be sure all titrant is mixed in the flask.
Make sure you know what the endpoint should look like. For phenolphthalein, the endpoint is the
first permanent pale pink. The pale pink fades in 10 to 20 minutes.
If you think you might have reached the endpoint, you can record the volume reading and add
another partial drop. Sometimes it is easier to tell when you have gone past the endpoint.
If the flask looks like this, you have gone too far!
When you have reached the endpoint, read the final volume in the
buret and record it in your notebook.
